CATHETER APPARATUS FOR CRANIAL CAVITIES

Description

Field of the Invention

[0001] The present invention relates to a catheter apparatus for cranial cavities and, more particularly, to a catheter apparatus for cranial cavities which exhibits the advantage of a conventional catheter structure in that a medicine and a bodily fluid are transferred along different paths, uniformizes the outer diameter of a catheter so as to easily use stereotactic equipment to accurately locate the end of the catheter in a cerebral ventricle, and facilitates tunneling of the rear end of the catheter in a bypass space between the skull and the skin, so as to allow an operation to be simply and easily performed and thus to increase safety in operation.

Description of the Related Art

[0002] US5108364, US2013/0267888, WO2004/105829, WO97/49446 describes catheters; WO99/20334 describes an anchoring system for securing a catheter to the body of a patient.

[0003] As is well known, hematomas within cerebral ventricles have conventionally been removed together with treatment of diseases through craniotomy which is a neurosurgical operation. However, an operation, in which a catheter is inserted directly into a cerebral ventricle using brain computed tomography or brain magnetic resonance imaging or is more safely and accurately located in a cerebral ventricle using stereotactic equipment and then, a hematoma is removed or cerebrospinal fluid is discharged, is being generalized now.

[0004] Such an operation may be executed under local anesthesia within a short time and is thus suitable for a patient sensitive to general anesthesia. For example, in the case of intracerebral hemorrhage, the accurate position of a hematoma within a cerebral ventricle is measured through brain computed tomography, skull drilling is carried out, a catheter is inserted directly into the cerebral ventricle or inserted into the cerebral ventricle using stereotactic equipment, and thereby the hematoma is drained from the cranial cavity. In this case, since the extracranial drainage pattern of the hematoma varies according to the maturity of the hematoma (solid or liquid) and the hematoma should be gradually drained little by little rather than drainage of the entire hematoma at once, the catheter is fixed to the head for a designated period (2 days to 3 weeks or more) so that the remaining hematoma is gradually drained to the outside through the catheter.

[0005] Particularly, in the case of a solid hematoma, lysis of the hematoma is carried out by inserting a thrombolytic agent, such as urokinase, through a catheter so that the hematoma can be easily drained, and then the hematoma is drained.

[0006] However, since such a conventional catheter apparatus has one drain pipe serving as a single fluid path, when it is necessary to inject a thrombolytic agent, an antibiotic or a saline solution, a considerable amount of a bodily fluid, such as a hematoma or a cerebrospinal fluid, filling the inside of the catheter should be introduced again into the brain and the saline solution of an amount corresponding to the inner volume of the catheter should be additionally injected, and thus, the conventional catheter apparatus causes increased intracranial pressure, the risk of infection due to repeated injection and cumbersomeness in manipulation.

[0007] Therefore, in order to solve these problems, a catheter (12) shown in FIG. 2 has been developed. FIG. 2 illustrates the catheter (12) disclosed in Korean Patent Registration No. 0178113.

[0008] In more detail, as exemplarily shown in FIG. 1, in order to drain and remove a bodily fluid including a hematoma or a cerebrospinal fluid within a cerebral ventricle (9), a skull (6) located vertically above the cerebral ventricle (9) is accurately measured and is drilled along the line A.

[0009] A cranial cavity refers to a space including a brain (4) within the skull (6), and, after drilling of the skull (6) along the line A, the catheter (12) disclosed in Korean Patent Registration No. 0178113 is inserted into a hole formed by drilling the skull (6) such that one end of the catheter (12) is located at an affected part (10), i.e., in the cerebral ventricle (9).

[0010] In this case, the other end of the catheter (12) may not be located just above the end of the catheter (12) inserted into the affected part (10) in order to prevent infection and, as exemplarily shown in FIG. 1, the catheter (12) is configured such that the other end of the catheter (12) is bent from the end of the catheter (12) inserted into the affected part (10). Therefore, an electrical needle is connected to the other end of the catheter (12), and the other end of the catheter (12) is bent and passes through a bypass space (8) formed between a skin (2) and the upper surface of the skull (6) by drilling and is extruded to the outside through another pierced portion of the skin (2). Such a technique is referred to as subcutaneous tissue tunneling.

[0011] That is, the other end of the catheter (12) is not exposed from a position just above the hole of the cerebral ventricle (9) but is exposed from a position bent from the hole of the cerebral ventricle (9) through the bypass space (8) .

[0012] The exposed catheter (12) may be fixed by a separate fixture (17). Here, the catheter (12) passes through a through hole (21) formed in a body (23) of the fixture (17) and the body (23) is fixed to the skull (6) or the skin through separate fixing units passing through fixing holes (25).

[0013] A drain pipe (14) to drain a bodily fluid including a hematoma or a cerebrospinal fluid to the outside is formed at the center of the catheter (12) and a medicine transfer pipe (18) is formed at a designated region at the outside of the drain pipe (14).

[0014] A designated portion of one end of the medicine transfer pipe (18) is incised and connected to a medicine injection pipe (22), and the medicine transfer pipe (18) and the medicine injection pipe (22) are firmly connected to each other by a connection member (24).

[0015] Therefore, the bodily fluid including the hematoma or the cerebrospinal fluid, introduced from the affected part (10) through drain holes (16) is drained to the outside through the drain pipe (14) and, when a syringe (not shown) is coupled with the medicine injection pipe (22) and injects a thrombolytic agent, an antibiotic or a saline solution, the injected thrombolytic agent, antibiotic or saline solution is discharged from a medicine discharge hole (20) via the medicine injection pipe (22) and the medicine transfer pipe (18) and introduced into the affected part (10).

[0016] However, in an operation of inserting such a catheter (12) into the affected part (10), the end of the catheter (12) should be inserted into the cerebral ventricle (9) along an accurate path and, unless the end of the catheter (12) is not inserted into the cerebral ventricle (9) along the accurate path, the catheter (12) may damage brain tissue around the path and thus a high degree of skill is required. In order to prevent such a mistake, stereotactic equipment (not shown) is used and, for this purpose, the catheter (12) should be configured so as to have no protrusion at the outer portion thereof.

[0017] However, the catheter (12) is configured such that the medicine injection pipe (22) is connected to the medicine transfer pipe (18) through the separate connection member (24) and thus the medicine injection pipe (22) branched from a connection region into a Y shape protrudes from the outer surface of the catheter (12). Therefore, it is difficult to use stereotactic equipment and to perform tunneling of the rear end of the catheter (12) between the skull (6) and the skin (2), thus causing difficulty and complexity in operation.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0023] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the annexed drawings.

[0024] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a catheter for cranial cavities in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the catheter for cranial cavities in accordance with the embodiment of the present invention which is provided with a binding member, FIG. 5 is a view illustrating a connection state among a plastic pipe, an extension tube and a syringe, and FIGS. 6A, 6B and 6C are perspective views illustrating a connection state of the binding member of FIG. 4.

[0025] With reference to FIGS. 3 to 6C, a catheter apparatus for cranial cavities in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention exhibits the advantage of a conventional catheter structure in that a medicine and a bodily fluid are transferred along different paths, uniformizes the outer diameter of a catheter so as to easily use stereotactic equipment to accurately locate the end of the catheter in a cerebral ventricle, and facilitates subcutaneous tissue tunneling of the rear end of the catheter in a bypass space between the skull and the skin, thereby allowing an operation to be simply and easily performed and thus increasing safety in operation.

[0026] In more detail, the catheter apparatus for cranial cavities in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention includes a catheter for cranial cavities (30), a plastic pipe (48), an extension tube (60), and a binding member (62) .

[0027] A drain pipe (14) to drain a bodily fluid including a hematoma or a cerebrospinal fluid to the outside is formed at the center of the catheter for cranial cavities (30), a plurality of drain holes (16) is formed at the front end of the drain pipe (14), a medicine transfer pipe (18) is formed at a designated region at the outside of the drain pipe (14), and the rear end of the medicine transfer pipe (18) is closed with a finishing member (34). Through such a configuration, after the catheter for cranial cavities (30) is installed within a cerebral ventricle, the plastic pipe (48) is inserted into a designated portion of the catheter for cranial cavities (30) so as to inject a medicine.

[0028] A binding member (62) is provided to fix the catheter for cranial cavities (30), the plastic pipe (48) and the extension tube (60) without separation under the condition that the extension tube (60) is coupled with the plastic pipe (48).

[0029] That is, the drain pipe (14) has a greater diameter than the medicine transfer pipe (18) and drains a bodily fluid including a hematoma or a cerebrospinal fluid to the outside, and a separate bodily fluid storage bag (not shown) is coupled with the rear end of the drain pipe (14) via a connector (36).

[0030] Further, the plastic pipe (48) is a pipe formed of a synthetic resin so as to be gently bent at a connection portion thereof to the medicine transfer pipe (18) and is covered with a silicon tube so as not to be broken, and the other end of the plastic pipe (48) is provided with a Luer connector (61) and a swabable valve or a heparin cap.

[0031] The medicine transfer pipe (18) has a smaller diameter than the drain pipe (14) and serves to inject a medicine, such as a thrombolytic agent, an antibiotic or a saline solution, into a cranial cavity from the outside of the cranial cavity. The medicine transfer pipe (18) is not branched off into a separate Y-shaped pipe and uniformizes the outer diameter of the catheter for cranial cavities (30), thereby facilitating usage of stereotactic equipment, facilitating subcutaneous tissue tunneling using an electronic needle and thus allowing the catheter for cranial cavities (30) to be easily bent during operation.

[0032] An insertion hole (31) is formed through a designated portion of the rear end of the medicine transfer pipe (18) so that the plastic pipe (48) may be inserted into the insertion hole (31), and a temporary closing packing (32) temporarily closes the insertion hole (31).

[0033] That is, in the catheter for cranial cavities (30) in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, since the insertion hole (31) into which the plastic pipe (48) may be inserted is formed through the designated portion of the rear end of the medicine transfer pipe 18 and the temporary closing packing (32) temporarily closes the insertion hole (31), when, during operation, the temporary closing packing (32) is removed and the plastic pipe (48) is inserted into the medicine transfer pipe (18) through the insertion hole (31), an insertion process is completed and, thus, an operator does not need to pay attention not to accidently pierce the drain pipe (14) adjacent to the medicine transfer pipe (18) by mistake.

[0034] Further, the plastic pipe (48) is a pipe formed of a synthetic resin so as to be bent at a designated angle within the medicine transfer pipe (18) and is covered with a silicon tube so as to prevent the plastic pipe (48) from being broken and to uniformize the insertion depth of the plastic pipe (48).

[0035] That is, the plastic pipe (48) is a pipe formed of a synthetic resin.

[0036] Here, the plastic pipe (48) is in a flexible state and, thus, if the plastic pipe (48) is obliquely inserted into the medicine transfer pipe (18) when the plastic pipe (48) is introduced into the medicine transfer pipe (18), the plastic pipe (48) is easily introduced into the medicine transfer pipe (18).

[0037] Further, the catheter apparatus for cranial cavities in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention further includes the binding member (62) provided to allow an operation to be carried out under the condition that the plastic pipe (48), the extension tube (60) and the catheter for cranial cavities (30) are more firmly combined.

[0038] Here, the Luer connector (61) is provided at the end of the extension tube (60).

[0039] Further, the binding member (62) is configured such that first and second bodies (62a, 62b) are rotated about a hinge so as to be coupled with each other or separated from each other under the condition that the first and second bodies (62a, 62b) are opposite each other, and the second body (62b) is a planar panel serving as a cover of the first body (62a).

[0040] Within the first body (62a), a first insertion hole (70), through which the catheter for cranial cavities (30) passes, is formed to pass through the upper and lower surfaces of the first body (62a) and a second insertion hole (72), into which the plastic pipe (48) and the extension tube (60) are inserted, is formed.

[0041] The first and second insertion holes (70, 72) are formed into a Y shape such that the plastic pipe (48) and the extension tube (60) may be introduced into the catheter for cranial cavities (30), inserted into the first insertion hole (70), through the second insertion hole (72), as exemplarily shown in FIGS. 6A, 6B and 6C.

[0042] The extension tube (60) may be formed of silicon.

[0043] A locking unit (66) to interconnect the first and second bodies (62a, 62b) so as to lock the first and second bodies (62a, 62b) with each other or to release locking between the first and second bodies (62a, 62b) may be further provided on the first and second bodies (62a, 62b).

[0044] That is, the hinge (not shown) may be formed on one surface of the binding member (62) and the locking unit (66) may be formed on another surface of the binding member (62) opposite the hinge, so that the side surfaces of the first and second bodies (62a, 62b) provided with the first and second insertion holes (70, 72) are opened from each other or closed to each other.

[0045] Consequently, in the catheter apparatus for cranial cavities in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, since the catheter (30), the plastic tube (48) and the extension tube (60) are integrally combined within the binding member (62) under the condition that the Luer connector (61) and the swabable valve or the heparin cap are connected to the extension tube (60), no additional assistant operator is required.

[0046] The catheter apparatus for cranial cavities in accordance with the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.

[0047] As apparent from the above description, a catheter apparatus for cranial cavities in accordance with the present invention is advantageous in that no protrusion is formed on the outer surface of a catheter and thus the end of the catheter may be easily and accurately located in a cerebral ventricle using stereotactic equipment, the catheter may be easily guided to be bent through a bypass space between the upper part of the skull and the skin, and the rear end of the catheter may be easily exposed to the outside of a cranial cavity through a perforated part.

[0048] Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
